Recent advances in technology permit measurement of characteristics of the nerve fibres that make up the optic nerve. One of these is SD-OCT(Fig2)‚ a non contact‚ non-invasive method that enables physicians to obtain in vivo‚ high resolution (upto 5 microns) cross-sectional images of the retina. It is based on principle of low-coherence interferometry(Fig 3). By imaging a 3D cube of data it allows a detailed evaluation of the peripapillary area.

Furthermore‚ in the present study‚ we employed a simple visual ®xation point as the control baseline condition rather than the use of a neutral face. While this strategy maximized our possibility of detecting signal changes for each valence condition and permitted the direct comparison of fearful and happy activation within the ROIs‚ we were
